You're going to wear those guns out from cleaning long before you wear them out shooting. For instance, my .22LR Target pistol, a Benelli MP90, hasn't been cleaned yet this year, and it sees an average of about 200 rounds a month. Back almost 100 years ago there was a marvelous invention, non corrosive gun powder. But yes, a hunting rifle that gets cold, warm, cold, muddy etc. yea, I'd clean that often.
